Alfredo Morelos has had an excellent start to his Rangers career and the discussion around his debut season should be about what he can offer the Ibrox side for years to come.

However, the Colombian has been the subject of intense transfer speculation. Rangers are reported to have turned down four bids from Chinese Super League side Beijing Renhe for the striker and the club are bracing themselves for a fifth that goes beyond £10m.

Is it time to cash in on a 16-goal forward?

It's a tough call because Rangers don't want to become known as a club that gets dictated to in the transfer market, selling as soon as a half-decent offer comes along. But let's face facts here - the apparent £11million fee proposed is ten times what Rangers paid for Morelos in the summer and more than what they've spent on signings all season.

It could have a massive impact on tailoring the squad to the wishes of the next manager, whether that's Graeme Murty or someone else, and with the title race already over and a top four finish pretty certain, it's not as if selling now would put Rangers' whole season in jeopardy.

As long as Rangers spend the money wisely, fans will be satisfied in the long-run.

If Alfredo Morelos, at the age of 21, wants to ply his trade in the Chinese Super League, perhaps Rangers should get rid. It would show a lack of ambition for the revelatory striker to leave Europe now.

Assuming he’s willing to stay and progress as a player in Europe, Rangers should hold on.

There are shades of Moussa Dembele about this situation - the young striker courted by clubs elsewhere but who can only get better in Scotland - and given that the Gers are starting to come into some form, they’ll need to hold onto him next season in order to perhaps challenge then.

But we all know financial considerations are another factor for Rangers these days.

This entire transfer saga has been a completely bizarre one from my perspective. Why would Rangers not cash in on a player who is unlikely to increase in value beyond the current reported fees offered?

There's no doubting that Alfredo Morelos has had an excellent debut season, 16 goals is nothing to sniff at, but it's not been such a good season that the club can refuse offers close to, or beyond, £10m.

With Jason Cummings already at the club and Josh Windass providing excellent scoring support from attacking midfield, the Light Blues have more than enough to help them achieve their ambitions this season and it's cash would could go a long way towards building a competitive squad in the summer.

If the money is on offer from China, it's time to take it, even if it weakens their squad mid-season.
